hey i have a 92 180sx sr20 (88000km) with a gt2860rs + all the normal mods. when i bought the car there was no head noise, and when i changed the oil to a nulon 10w40, something in the head started to make a hell of a noise.. i contacted the previous owner and he said that there was ULK110 10w40 in it. does anyone know where i can get ULK110 10w40 in adelaide? and/or know what the noise could be? any help would be awesome.

ok i havent had time to pull off the rocker cover yet, but i got a mechanical stethoscope and the noise is at its loudest on the exhaust side of cylinder three....
-
how do i check the oil pressure? do i need to get a oil pressure gauge? when you thicker oil, how thick are we talking? like a 20w-50 for even thicker?
-
3.5L came out, so i tryed to put 3.5L back in but i accidently put in a little more so theres about 3.7-4L in there.

hey im a newbie so be nice I changed the engine oil in my 92 180sx redtop (78000km) with a gt2860rs + the normal mods, and put some nulon 10w-40 fully synthetic oil in it. as soon as i started it up the tappets went crazy. The noise is quite loud when the engine is cold and it doesn't disappear when its at running temperature. Could this be the "wrong" oil causing the nosie? Previously there was VXD? oil in. (the owner couldn't remember what the mechanic put in it)If it is what is a good oil to use? any help would be awesome. thanks.

clutch master cylinder pressure
giggers180 replied to giggers180's topic in Nissan Silvia (nissansilvia.com)
we took the master off last night (there is no bleeding nipple on it) and pulled it part. one of the seals on the piston has dissolved? (thats what was making all the fluid black) im currently trying to find a rebuild kit for the master. does anyone know where i can get this kit and or what part number it is? Unley Nissan want $60 and a 3 week wait (its coming from Japan), Supercheap auto can get the whole thing for $150 (i got the slave from them and it was $14.98) thanks. -
on saturday i was driving along and after taking off from a side street into a main road, my clutch pedal went to the ground and stayed there. we came to the conclusion that the clutch slave cylinder was stuffed. we got a new slave today and it's all installed correctly. My father and i are currently trying to bleed the clutch lines and after an hour of bleeding the thing, we are struggling to build up pressure on the clutch pedal. We are still getting some dirty fluid coming out. Also the pedal still isnt "self-rebounding" (i have to manually pull it out) any help would be awesome. thanks btw its a 1992 180sx redtop

how can air get in the lifters? i thought that was just when u rebuild the engine....? or can that happen when you change the oil?
-
ok. i have the receipt in my hand. it states, "Fitment of supplied boost controller and supply of reg and fit and tune of car" = $600 it was done by THR Developments if that makes a difference.
